I sure hope someone else had as much fun as Russ and I did this
past weekend. We pulled in to Codorus on Friday, amidst a dreary
drizzle of rain. Since the forecast was calling for showers off and on
all weekend, we figured we might as well get used to it, and we played
both layouts; surprisingly well actually considering the rain. We had
grandiose plans of going to find dinner somewhere, but once we pulled
in to Jay.'s place it was over. Too much Frisbee action, too many
friendly faces, too many libations flowing, and too tired to go
anywhere. This was the first of 2 very similar evenings, filled with
laughter, story telling, catching up with old friends and Frisbee
tossing well into the spotlight lit night. That's right, Jay. has
lights so you can play all night.
We had two rounds on Saturday, and the weather couldn't have been
better. No rain, not too much humidity, and slightly overcast all day.
When we met for lunch, Russ called his wife, and the report he gave her
was "Hey, how're you doing? that's good. I beat Brad. Talk to you
later." After round one, Russ was up by 4. After round two, I was up by
1. And of course I reminded him of this all night at the local watering
hole, and well into the wee hours of the morning.
Round three found Russ and I playing on the same card, along with
Eric Boger, and BW Llamma George Ginter. Great group to be in; we had a
blast, despite the constant drizzle. It seemed pretty apparent that not
too many people had practiced or prepared for the rain as there were
quite a few scores coming in worse than the first. Our card was pretty
tight throughout the round, with a few mishaps here and there, but
everyone seemed to hold it together pretty well. After it was all said
and done, I ended up beating Russ by 4. He was pretty quiet on the ride
home...
I've said it before and I'll say it again: If you have the chance
to go to Codorus, do it. Especially if it's a tourney, and especially
if you can find a reason to crash at Jay.'s place. Uncle Jay. is the
most generous host you'll find.

results can be seen here for those interested.
I'm still collecting money for tags! I'd love to be playing for them
already, but we need a few more people to sign up before we can order
them.
I'm looking in to getting some Under Armour type t-shirts printed. If
you're interested, please let me know. Cost will be around $15/ea.
It's getting closer to the Harvest everyday. We're going to start
having some workdays, so be on the lookout for dates.
Russ will be handling the scheduling since he did such a great job last
year.
I forgot that this Sunday is Mother's Day. I won't be out. I'll see you
out there on the 17th!
